Compilation - 1-Hexene with Water (IUPAC SDS Volume 37)
SDS Volume (358)
Volume 37. Hydrocarbons in Water and Seawater, Part I, p 277
Original Measurements
Variables:
Room Temp: 30 °C
Prepared by:
Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
Component (1) was introduced into a thermostatted flask and saturated for 5 hrs. with (2). Next, calcium hydride was added and the evolving hydrogen volume measured and hence the concentration of (2) in (1) was evaluated.
Source and Purity of Materials:
- Not specified.
- not specified.
Estimated Errors:
Ambient temperature: Not specified.
Components:
- 1-Hexene, $\ce{ C6H12 }$; [592-41-6] NIST WebBook
- Water, $\ce{ H2O }$; [7732-18-5] NIST WebBook
Experimental Data
The solubility of water in 1-hexene at 30°C was reported to be 0.0477 g(2)/100 g sln.
The corresponding mole fraction, x2, calculated by the compilers is 2.23 × 10-3.
